THIS IS SPINAL CRACK :: Goodbye, Vitamin Edition

Pop Culture Nerd and I often talk books. Just as often, we talk about putting our discussions in written form. We've only managed that once...but wait, make that twice! We are on a literary roll (mmm, rolls) and this time we even have a new title for our feature thanks to Mr. Pop Culture Nerd, who is a genius and entitled to a huge share of our non-existent royalties.

We recently both read and loved Rachel Khong's Goodbye, Vitamin, which is now the inaugural entry in what we hope will be a continued column. Rachel Khong's debut is a stellar read that will make you laugh and "nail you in the sweet spot." Press HERE to read our inanity in all its glory. Enjoy.

About Malcolm Avenue Review

I was lucky enough to be born and raised in a nifty, oak-shaded ranch house on Malcolm Avenue, a wide-laned residential street with little through traffic, located amid the foothills of Northern California. It was on that street and in that house I learned most of my adolescent life lessons, and many grown-up ones to boot. Malcolm Avenue was "home" for more than thirty years.

It was on Malcolm Avenue, through and with my family and the other families that made up our neighborhood of characters, that I first learned about and gained an appreciation for the things I continue to love the most to this day: music, animals, photography, sports, television/movies and, of course, books.

I owe a debt of gratitude to that life on Malcolm Avenue. It gave me a sense of community and friendship, support and adventure. For better and worse, life on that street likely had the biggest impact on the person I've become. So this blog, and the things I write here, are all, at their base level, a little bit of a love letter to Malcolm Avenue.
